It’s cruel that the White House continues to try every possible way to keep kids and families in need from receiving food assistance.
Stop attacking SNAP and get to work to end this shutdown.
As Governor and now as Senator, I’ve had the privilege of working with Chairman Manuel Heart and have seen firsthand his incredible leadership and love for his community.
We’re grateful for Chairman Heart’s service to the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and wish him the best in his retirement.
Health care is a right, not a privilege. Working families deserve affordable and accessible health care. Period.
Americans want us to work together and address the health care crisis. It’s time for Republicans to come to the table and reopen the government.
We’re not even a full year into Trump’s second term, and we’ve already seen over a MILLION layoffs. His chaos is crushing manufacturing, innovation, and small businesses.
We need to get back to lowering costs and creating jobs.
A family of four in Salida will have their monthly health care premium nearly DOUBLE. Colorado families can’t afford Republican inaction on the health care crisis.
Health care isn’t political. It impacts every single one of us – Republican or Democrat, urban or rural. We’re focused on making health care affordable and accessible for working families.
Republicans control the White House and both chambers of Congress.
It’s now Day 36 of the longest shutdown in American history.
A constituent from Pueblo sent us their 2026 monthly insurance cost if Republicans let the ACA premium tax credits expire. It will be over QUADRUPLE what they’re paying now.
The courts have made it clear: SNAP should be fully funded.
The White House needs to follow the law. It’s cruel to use hungry families and kids as political pawns.
Today is Election Day, Colorado! 🗳️

These health care price hikes are a slap in the face to the hardworking families who are already struggling to afford Trump’s America.
A constituent in Monument, CO will see his health care premium TRIPLE in cost to over $2,000/month for him and his family.
Trump is throwing Great Gatsby galas at Mar-a-Lago during a government shutdown.

Health care costs are already sky-high for working families. The last thing Coloradans need is for their insurance premiums to increase by hundreds of dollars a month.
Open enrollment on the Colorado exchange starts today. Families will now be able to see just how much their monthly premiums will increase.
Republicans need to work with us to extend the ACA premium tax credits and make health care affordable for working families.
What happened in Durango this week is indefensible. Masked guards ripping people off the street. Violence against peaceful protesters. It’s beyond unacceptable.
My office is demanding ICE release the family now. www.instagram.com/reel/DQfWV0u...
